Ep. 56 – The Blackout Ripper

The story of the serial killer known as the Blackout Ripper who terrorized London during World War II

During World War II, the German Luftwaffe began a massive bombing campaign over London and the surrounding British countryside known as The Blitz. By night, London began turning off all the lights in order to make it more difficult for German bombers to locate targets. But this also allowed a brutal serial killer to begin stalking London’s streets under cover of darkness.
